@Snowden

The DNC is the only reason you’re not currently enjoying a second-term Sanders and a sane Supreme Court.

    Acknowledged. We circled the wagons around the wrong candidate twice in a row. Hillary Clinton was a well qualified candidate with likeability issues. Biden is a long time politician with equally good if not better qualifications than Clinton, he’s just old. Bernie is older. Bernie aligns a hell of a lot closer to my beliefs than the other candidates out there. Bernie isn’t in this race and has endorsed Biden, he’s a wise man and usually is right on most topics. I’m going with Bernie on this one, vote Biden and start building the next generation of leaders, maybe that next leader is you.

      likeability issues

      Is that what we call white supremacism these days? A “likeability issue?”

          I voted Hilary because lesser of two evils. But I despise her snake in the grass ass! And me not liking her has absolutely nothing to do with her gender.

          But you are right that there are many that hate on a strong, vocal female (AOC).

          There are still many strong females out there that would have done better than Hillary and would make great leaders

    DNC gets caught committing fraud in their own primary

    “No obviously it’s because not enough people voted for Bernie in the primary”

    mmm yes I wonder why that is

        Remember when Chris Matthews lost his fucking mind and started claiming that a sanders presidency would mean executions in Central Park.

        It is so frustrating sometimes talking about the history I lived through with people on this site. They will straight faced tell you how “no one beat Biden in the primaries this year” or “sanders has his chance to win but lost”

        One candidate has the backing of the DNC and the corporate media which hammers nonstop about how voting for sanders is voting for socialist death squads and he is unelectable. I’m sure that had no impact on the voters though. Billy and Bonnie msnbc watcher probably saw that clip and fully understood the complex nuances of who owns msnbc, what their motivations are, and could understand why one of the 4 media conglomerates might be a bit concerned about their profit machine getting disrupted. They certainly wouldn’t take 24/7 coverage about how unelectable and dangerous he is to heart.

    We know. Doesn’t matter until we have ranked choice or the like. Only one side gives us even a glimmer of a chance at that, so we have one choice.
